Many other miracles


Listen Later

John 20:30 AMP

There are also many other signs (attesting miracles) that Jesus performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book;

How many miracles?

We don’t know how many miracles Jesus did during His life and earthly ministry on earth

While we don’t know how many miracles were performed, we can count those that are clearly spoken of in the four gospel accounts wish are 37 plus His resurrection for a total of 38 miracles.

Why Did Jesus Do Miracles?

First, Jesus told us that He came not to be ministered unto, but to minister (Mark 10:45) and in His miracles He certainly did that.

Jesus performed miracles was to reveal Himself as being sent by God, as being the Son of Man (a Messianic title), and as being the Son of God.

One more reason for Jesus performing miracles was to give us a glimpse of that which is to come. One day all things will be made new by the power of God.

Examples of other miracles

Jesus healed a great multitude (Matt 12:15-21, Mark 3:7-12, Luke 6:17-19)

He healed the blind and the lame in the temple (Matt 21:14).

Do miracles still happen today?

In Scripture, miracles are often associated with the words “signs and wonders.” A sign is a physical manifestation that points to something greater than itself. In other words, the healing ministry of Jesus recounted in Scripture confirms that Jesus Christ is the son of God and the Savior of the world (Acts 2:22)

I believe all the kinds of miracles we see in the New Testament continue to happen in the world today with the same frequency and intensity

Hebrews 13:8

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
